Hello yamar,

Thanks for the fix, it worked for me too.

I've 2 pcs with ide drives, both were running Feisty following an
upgrade from Edgy. I've yet to upgrade the main pc to Gutsy, wanted to
try out upgrading with the second before making the jump with the main
pc. Beginning with Feisty IDE drives show up as sdx because there are
advantages (???!! - see below) to using this system. During the upgrade
from Edgy to Feisty, the main pc converted to the sdx format while the
second remained using the hdx format. It may have something to do with
age, pc2 is a Pentium 3 with one 40GB and one 20GB hard drives (both
5400 kbs speed). Upgrading pc2 to Gutsy converted the system to the sdx
system.

One big disadvantage (my opinion) sdx can only read a maximum of 15
partitions, not so good when you use more because they aren't mounted.
I've separated ntfs partitions for system, programs, swap, data,
downloads, surfing (firefox and thunderbird profiles shared on the
network between Win + Ubuntu), backup, games, fonts (shared between Win
+ Ubuntu) and given the main Linux mount points separate partitions - a
total of 20 partitions over 2 hard drives, setup when I was running
Edgy. Needless to say, it's a case of hiding some partitions from Ubuntu
to ensure the important shared ones are visible.
